That is a philosophical argument. This is saying that being an unfeeling cluster of cells is sufficient grounds to say you aren't worthy of moral considerations. It also needs more nuance. Flowers and animals and so on are feeling clusters of cells, yet clearly don't have the same moral considerations as humans. A full explication of why this specific characteristic is sufficient to justify abortion goes well beyond mere biology. It is literally a blob of cells. Sure, you can argue it has rights, but you can also argue a plant has rights. You can argue anything, but that doesnt make your argument coherent or valid. <cite>BaronessaRolab posted [p:885926668] in I think ab...
